Course Description
The safe transportation of dangerous goods is an unavoidable and complex reality that requires strict compliance with regulations and meticulous handling. In this comprehensive course, we demonstrate what dangerous goods actually are and how they are classified under international frameworks such as ADR, IMDG. From explosives to corrosives, we walk candidates through the nine hazard classes and their subdivisions to give you a deeper understanding.
This ADR Dangerous Goods course covers legal requirements, hazard classification (Classes 1-9), packaging, documentation, and emergency procedures, with core modules for general knowledge and specific units for packages, tanks, and individual hazard classes, ensuring safe transport of hazardous materials by road. The training builds from general rules to detailed class-specific handling, including loading, unloading, vehicle requirements, and security measures, culminating in exams for certification.
